Catching up!

Sooooooo...does having a 6 week old, a busy photography business, two other crazy kids, an active husband, and a visiting mother-in-law excuse me from being a slacker with blogging? I hope so!
I've had such a busy past couple of weeks! I have just been so blessed with so much energy and a good sleeper at night. (Watch, now I'll jinx myself!) We have literally had maybe ONE day in the past 3 or 4 week where we just stayed at home all day!
Josie is growing so much! Right now she's bouncing away in her bouncer, staring at me like I'm the best thing since sliced bread! Every so often I'll scoop her up and cuddle her, or just glance down and give her a big smile and she gets all excited! She's already a little smiley baby, completely happy when she's been fed/changed and LOVES to be held!
Nicholas is doing so much better adjusting, too. Not nearly as many nightmares, and has only come into our room crying once in the past week or so, and that was because he bonked his head because Brynn had stolen his pillow!
Brynn is doing wonderful, too. SUCH a big helper, running to get me things if I'm nursing or Josie's just pooped all over my hand! :) I can't believe in a few months she'll be starting KINDERGARTEN! AHHHH! I'm not OLD enough to have a kindergartener! Plus, Nicholas will be going to the 2 year old preschool class...craziness!
Okay, so I guess I should post some (i.e. a TON) pictures!
Nick, Michele (his mom), Nathan (his mom's husband), Dani (Nick's sister),Grant (Dani's fiance), and I went to my favorite restaurant...H20 Sushi one of the nights his mom and Nathan were visiting...
Chopsticks make for good walrus disguises...

Wow, so how old are Nick's mom and her husband? They look pretty young, especially Nick's mom. She looks pretty hot for a grandma! LOL!:)
